I am excited about Sold On A Cure

I want this program to take off today.

I can't wait to meet some of you who are looking to buy or sell a house in the GTA. I love introducing newcomers to their new neighbourhoods, schools, shopping areas etc. It is an incredibly stressful thing to move from one city to another and I like to help people make that transition as smoothly as possible.

It is very similar to working with first-time home buyers. Fear of the unknown can cripple your move, however, with patience and guidance it can be a most enjoyable experience.

I get the same satisfaction knowing that I have put people in touch with great Realtors around the world. Too often, people call a real estate office and speak to the agent on duty. This agent may specialize in condos or new homes. They may be from a completely different demographic, for example a different generation, and may not be familiar with the specific needs of an older client. These are the kind of criteria I look for when matching you to a sales representative in a different city, and it is this effort that makes your experience an enjoyable one.

Sold On A Cure

Only 400 home sales to go to reach my target of donating $100,000 to the Breast Cancer Foundation in 2009.

Just to emphasize the fact that this is a huge commitment and that I am not a millionairre philanthropist , I have never come close to earning (forget donating) $100,000 in a single year before. In fact, my 2008 earnings will be around $15,000 for the year (admittedly, the first 8 months were spent in France).

So why am I doing this? Have you read One Red Paperclip or heard about the guy who traded up from a single red paperclip to a house? If not, visit his website. When you dream big, and believe that dreams can come true then anything is possible. That, and the fact that I simply want to see if I can do it. It is like a giant game of Dare. I have double-dog dared myself to donate $100,000 to the Breast Cancer Foundation in 2009.

This is achievable, but I need your help. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, anyone you can think of that is planning to buy or sell a house to visit my website first. By accessing the website before you choose your Realtor, I can ensure that $250 of the commission will be paid directly to the Breast Cancer Foundation. If you are buying and selling the donation is $500.

I will update this page often and keep you up to date on my progress.

Wish me luck.
